After market radio/ Nissan Warrantee
Hey all I am thinking about having a certified technician from best buy install my pioneer avic n1 and the viper 791xvi in my car.
Does anyone know if that voids my warrantee or anything like that??? or if it just voids electrical and i still have other parts of my warantee ???
thanks a lot for your responses!!!!!

As far as I know it would just void the warranty on the radio and stock alarm (and possibly electrical)...shouldn't affect anything else. For example lowering your car only voids the warranty on the suspension...
I would get confirmation from your dealer though.

If you get an aftermarket stereo and your air conditioner goes out, it is likely that the dealership will blame the broken ac on your radio. They blamed my fule pump going out on my aftermarket DVD player and everytime I had a problem with my max they didn't hesitate to blame it on the stereo. I know the law says they have to prove the aftermarket part (radio) caused the problem but in most cases the dealership decides what they want to do and then you're **** out of luck. But good luck, I've heard some great things about that Pioneer.

hey guys! I'm quite new to this forum, but I just have one question. Actually, I posted this already but I just wanna ask anybody who is not busy right now ( 
) will it damage my RIMS if ever I drive my car with less air pressure on the tires? Like around 24-25 psi? Because that's what it read in the gauge yesterday morning (a very cold morning with temps at below 30's) and I drove the car for over 600 miles the past 3-4 days. (The temps during those 3-4 days was b/w 28 - 45 deg).
Thank u very much for your answer and for your time. I really appreciate it!

If you drive with the tire pressure lower you increase the change of bottoming out the tire on the rim which can indeed cause damage. Run the tires at the specified PSI unless the 25 PSI is a temporary thing (under 5 miles). You will wear out your tires faster too running them at 25 PSI!!!

Rim was replaced and all is well, but, if at 25PSI on my 20" tires I hit a nice pothole.....that would have been a different problem. As winter is now here, I check the tire pressure often. They actually have tire caps that change color if the PSI drops. They help me out. Think I paid 10 bucks for a set of 4, 32PSI caps.
BTW, nice looking car you've got there!
